In the picture, Carrot's too thin and Ramkin's too evil, but carrot did wear a Protective, and Ramkin did wear a ginger wig and low-cut nightgown.

I'm pretty sure the guy smoking the pipe is Modo. Didn't he smoke a pipe to protect himself from the smell of his glowing compost?

The girl on Binky could be Ms. Flitworth after she died. Didn't she revert to a younger version of herself, or am I getting her mixed up with the witch who died in Soul Music?

And why should you be angry at the cover artist for drawing four eyes when the character in the book has four eyes? I was more annoyed with Pratchett for getting a little carried away making Twoflower seem strange and exotic.

It was a misunderstanding apparently. Terry meant that Twoflower was wearing glasses - no one in A-M had seen them before so that's how they described Twoflower. Josh took Terry literally and drew him with four actual eyes.

Annotations on LSpace wrote:- [p. 16/16] "[...] found himself looking up into a face with four eyes in it."

On the covers of the first two Discworld books, Josh Kirby actually drew Twoflower with four physical eyes. Consensus on alt.fan.pratchett has it that Terry was trying to get across the fact that Twoflower was wearing glasses ('four-eyes' being a common insult thrown at bespectacled folks), but that Josh Kirby simply triggered on the literal text and went off in a direction of his own. Whether this action essentially shows Kirby's interpretative genius (the KirbyFan explanation) or his inability to get the joke / read very carefully (the NonKirbyFan explanation) is a matter still under discussion.

I think you're right pooh - or at least not the Josh Kirby UK cover pic as there Erlking's different (those horns are more bullish than a stag's rack which are definitely on the UK copy)

Checked! definitely not the same cover as UK - that has Nanny & Casanunda on the title side and Erlking's on the spine complete with antlers and shaggy goaty legs and much more macho than portly... *goes to shower*
I'm not sure the non-Kidby covers are Kirby's actually - the women aren't quite right for him and the palette's off somehow as well?
